Once products have been eviscerated and before they can be chilled, necks may have to be removed, neck flaps and products cleaned of any residual debris and products given a thorough inside/outside wash.
Debris left inside the product or neck flap can impact on product value and shelf life. Undamaged, uniformly cut neck flaps can be important for the presentation of products to be sold whole. Final inspection ensures high quality products and efficient downstream processes.
